InstallationSite Inspection:A site inspection allows you to evaluate your area of operation to ensure adequate communication between the RFTerminal(s) and the Base Station(s).To perform a site inspection, all that is required is a base station and power supply, and an RF Terminal.1. Connect the base station to an A/C power outlet where you think the base station will be placed. Formaximum range, it is generally recommended to place the base station upside down on the ceiling – in the middle ofthe building2. Turn on the RF Terminal3. Press “NO” at the SIGN ON? Prompt4. Press “NO” at the SETUP MODE? Prompt5. Press “NO” at the ONE WAY MODE? Prompt6. Press “YES” at the SITE TESTING? Prompt7. Now you can walk around the building and press “ENTER” when you want to perform the test. Theterminal indicates the percentage of successful transmissions8. If the percentage is at least 85%, then you will have excellent results in the location tested. If you are notachieving the minimum percentage, consult the Worth Data Owner’s Guide for possible solutions.Radio-Frequency Hardware Configuration:**Please consult the Worth Data Owner’s Guide for detailed information on how to configure the base station(s) andRF terminal(s)**Base Stations:You can configure multiple RF terminals per base station. For optimal performance, it is not recommended to exceed8-10 RF terminals on a single base station. If you require more than 8-10 RF terminals, it is recommended to purchaseadditional base stations and divide the RF terminals among them.If you are using multiple base stations, there are two configuration options available. You can attach more than onebase station to a single computer – if there are multiple serial ports on that computer; alternatively you can attacheach base station to a separate computer. The second configuration allows staff to continue working with <strong>ACCU</strong>-<strong>DART</strong>, should one computer become unavailable for any reason.Each base station must have a unique channel (or frequency). By default, the channel is set to 0. To confirm thechannel on a base station, unplug the power supply and then plug it in again. The light will blink 3 times plus thechannel number. For example: if the channel is 1, it will blink 4 times.To change the channel (or frequency) of the base station, refer to Appendix A in the Worth Data Owner’s <strong>Manual</strong>:Channel and Jumper Changes.The Base station(s) plug into the COM port of your computer. If your computer does not have a COM port, you canuse a USB to Serial Cable adaptor.
